The police are the department owned by the government who is responsible for ensuring the security of the citizens of the country. Despite major scandals involving police brutality and violence, there are still reasons we should trust them.

10. People believe in police officers nowadays more than before because they are aware of the fact that they are recruited through a proper method. People now have trust in the method through which police officers are being selected. Thus, the trust over police has grown over the years.

9. Most people think that the police will unnecessarily try to fix them into something whenever they are called. However, this perception has changed because police officers are much more cooperative now.

8. A large number of people say that police officers are accountable for any wrong doing they have done during their duty. However, the system has improved and it is extremely difficult for them to get away if they have committed a crime.

7. Police officers are aware of the laws and regulations of each and every situation. Since these officers now come from training where they have to study well about the law. This act has enhanced people's trust of the cops.(Revise This)

6. Police officers do not have the right to come into a house and tear it apart until and unless they have a search warrant. If they do so they will be held accountable for their actions.

5. The trust among police officers has grown over the years because the governments ensured that officers would be less involved in drugs and other bad habits. This has helped the trust grow more among the people.

4. Police officers are quite harsh towards criminals just because they have committed a crime. But now these officers are trained to stay cool and behave in a good manner with the public and the criminals.(Revise)

3. Due to a lot of improvement in police departments, the corruption levels have also reduced among the police officers. This is one reason why people trust police now.

1. It has been noticed that police officers are now much more active towards even a small crime because they are going to be held accountable for even a small crime in their area. This is also one of the reasons that has helped to increase trust in the police.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great.
